Wltn a street parade JO-udy. Inc ponce
authorities anticipated trouble and Chief

Smith at the head of the parade, and
another at the rear, while a number of
| policemen in citizen clothes were Or
dered to be in readiness for an emer-
! gency. When the procession went
through the Irish quarter of
! Paterson the streets We're
thronged. Just as the procession
| turned into Mill street from Grand,
rash Orangeman shouted: "Hurrah for
King William" This was too much for
| peace, and an IriShman on the sidewalk
rushed for him with the exclamation:
| ITO hell with King William" He
| threw brick which hit the enthusiastic
| Orangeman in the mouth, knocking him
| down and stunning him. A thousand
| persons crowded about and

were thrown. James Faron was ar

police. In the evening the rioting was
| resumed. At O'Clock there was gen
eral fight. All the crowd engaged in the
row, the Orangemen being in the mi

and were soon flying down Main street
| as rapidly as they could through the
Surging masses that ObStructed their
path. In this stampede many persons
were thrown down and trampled on and
doubtless would have been killed had
| the police not put in an appearance just
at the time. The night force was as
sembled at headquarters when
news of the riot reached them. Plac-
ing himself with Capt. BillsOn at
the head, Chief Grant ordered them to
the scene of the disturbance on double
| quick. The blue coats presented fine
| appearance as they moved in solid
front down Ellison street, but they pre-
Sented yet better appearance as at the
corner of Main street they lifted

right and left, rushed into the center Of
the riOting masses of humanity. The
Orangemen, seeing them. regained their
courage and once more turned
THEIR FACES TOWARD THE ENEMY.
Sticks, stones and bricks were hurled
in every direction, generally lighting
on the heads of the unfortunate rioters,
and in many cases making it necessary
for them to cry quarter. Just as the
Main street riot was about ending word
was received that another was going on
at the Erie depot. Some visitors were
awaiting the time of departure when
suddenly they were aroused by the at
! tacking force, which assaulted some Of
their party who had injudiciOuSly left

| to their rescue, and it was not long till
the fight was nearly as warm as had just
| taken place. Stones and bricks were
used, and many injuries were sustained
on both sides, but another squad OF pO-
| lice came to the rescue and sent the
mob flying. The visitors were then
guarded until their train pulled out of
| the depot. Four men were arrested
and taken to Jail from this riot. One,
| James Feary, was captured While in the
act of cooking a revolver.
